Interesting video

Now, I'm not one to get into heated political debates, but I do have my opinions on who is the best candidate to be our next president.

Here's something to think of when you cast your ballot: Video Link

It's a long video and could have done without the "Post this everywhere" at the end, but the meat is still there and it's still important.

Let me also say this: I understand that it's not solely Obama's fault. Blame is shared through the whole Democratic Party...

So I'm conservative. I have no problem with that at all. I believe what I believe and I'm not one to apologise for it.
Something else that I believe is that I have a different viewpoint than most: Though I don't completely embrace what most extremists are saying, I don't necessarily fully disagree with their viewpoints. As much as I may disagree with the way that a group of people is protesting something or other, I think that we need them to help balance out those who only look for a way to make profit. And while I can empathize with the protesters saying that yes, things can be done in a way that may be better environmentally, I think that we need the other extreme as well, to keep a balance.
After all, if it were up to some extreme environmentalists, we'd all be living in mud huts, eating only fruit that fell to the ground of its own accord and wearing non-animal, non-synthetic clothing. That would be bad in many ways as well: Too much fruit will give you the runs, and I look absolutely terrible in a grass skirt!
